It's finally time for October's Full Kit Reveal at C'est Magnifique Kits! We've already shared the awesome Tilda (Sweden) and 7 Dots Studios (Poland) papers and all the gorgeous add-ons but today we get to show you the main kit. I know this one is going to be a fave! Before I show you the kit photos, I have a few layouts to share created with October's "Summer's Last Dance."I will be sharing close-ups over the next few days, so be sure and come back!

First up I've used some of the heavenly 7 Dots 9th Wave papers and paired them with flowers and embellishments from the kit and add-ons. I loved using the stencil from the kit along with the Shimmerz Texturez paste .. and just had to use the Christy Tomlinson packaging as well. The photo is of my youngest dd and her hubby.

I've used the Main Kit, the Flower Add-on and the Embellishment Add-on.

From my stash I've used some twine, a Cheery Lynn butterfly die, a MS punch and a few miscellaneous pearls.

Next I decided to combine the 7 Dots with the Tilda papers to highlight a lovely bridal photo of my dgd and her husband. It's hard to see (because I covered much of it) but I did get a little messy with the Shimmerz Vibe and cute little Prima stamp. The flowers in October's kit were so lovely and clustered so well regardless of the color combination you wanted to mix.

I decided it was time for a boy page and these 9th Wave papers and Blue Fern Marrakesh chipboard were so perfect for doing one! My page is based on a sketch by Lydell Quinn.

I've used the Main Kit, the Flower Add-on and the Embellishment Add-on.

From my stash I've used a stencil and some Dylusions mist, cheesecloth and a MS butterfly punch.

Lastly, I decided to do a mixed media canvas. This one is 11x14. I had such fun creating my background with my Damask stencil and lots of Lindy's Stamp Gang mists! I loved altering the kit and add-on contents to suit my needs. Don't you love that photo of dgd Marianne working on a crafty project with her 3 headbands and a scarf?

It is mid-September and I'm excited to share a peek at what we have coming up in October over at C'est Magnifique Kits.

Let's start off with a look at the paper that will be in the October Kit. It's a combination of 7 Dots Studios (Poland) and Tilda (Sweden). We have featured 7 Dots Studio in past kits, but Tilda is brand new to our kits. What an awesome pairing!!!

We have listened and this month have increased the number of Add-ons we have available. Each month we put together both an embellishment add-on and a flower add-on. We currently have both add-ons available in our Store. The October kit has an awesome amount of double-sided pattern paper (14 sheets!) so our add-ons are designed to give you even MORE embellishments to work with.

If you would like to purchase our October Kit, please visit our JOIN page for all the details. If you're already a kit member and want to make sure you get one or both of our October Add-ons, please head over to the Store and get them before they're gone. Several of the add-on items are available for sale individually in our Store.

Over the next couple of weeks our design team will be showing you how they have used the kit over at the C'est Magnifique Blog. And of course, I'll be sharing mine right here .. but not until Reveal Day this time due to our rotating schedule. So, stay tuned ... these are some of my fave projects!

About Me

Hi, I'm Sandi. Many thanks for coming by! I am happily married to a wonderfully supportive guy named Dan and we live in the great state of Texas. Together we have 3 grown daughters, 3 great sons-in-law and 16 wonderfully blended grandkids! Yes, sixteen! I work as an Audiologist in the medical field .. but scrapbook the rest of the time! At least, that is what my family says! Although I have been a crafter of some sort all my adult life, my SIL introduced me to this hobby about 8 years and I fell in love! It is truly my passion and I enjoy every minute of it! Give me paper and some photos and I'm in heaven!
